[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> announcer: we interrupt this program to bring you a special press conference with republican presidential candidate mitt romney. >> jimmy: hello, i'm mitt romney. [ cheers and applause ] now, tomorrow is the first of three debates between myself and president obama. and i'm looking forward to having a serious conversation with my opponent about the issues. and as you may havheard, i've also prepared a few zingers for the occasion. [ laughter ] would you like a taste? [ cheers and applause ] for example, when we greet each other onstage before the debate, i'll put my finger on obama's tie and i'll say, "hey, there's something on your tie." [ laughter ] then, when he looks down, i'll slide my finger from his sternum right up to his nostrils, and i'll say, "boop." [ laughter ] ha ha-ha. ha ha ha ha-ha. ha ha.

trust me, it's gonna be great. [ laughter ] i've also been working on some "that's what she said" zingers. [ light laughter ] for instance, when obama is talking during the debate, i'll just interrupt him and say, "that's what she said?" [ laughter ] ha ha ha. gets 'em every time. ha ha. [ laughter ] now, last week, my campaign leaked a memo telling everyone to lower their expectations for my performance in these debates because, as we all know, barack obama is an extremely gifted speaker. you might even say he's a "master debater." that's what she said? [ laughter ] ha ha ha! zing! you got zinged. you got zinged. anyway, forget lowering your expectations for my performance. here's a better idea. don't watch the debates at all. just watch something else instead. i mean, come on. there's, like, a million other shows on during the debates. i know because i happened to pick up this "television guidebook" just moments ago. let's see here. 9:00 p.m. on wednesday -- debates, debates, debates, debates. [ light laughter ]

there's a new episode of "supernatural" on the cw network. that sounds funky. [ light laughter ] tbs has a rerun of a show called "family guy." that sounds wholesome enough. [ laughter ] what else? debates, debates. you know what? forget tv. why not watch something on netflix? like my favorite movie, "brewster's millions." [ laughter ] it's about a guy who spends millions of dollars as fast as possible, but he just can't seem to run out of money. it's funny because it's true. [ laughter ] that's why it's funny. how about turning off the tv altogether? why not take a spin on your yacht? or go outside and play with your pets, like your equestrian horses, domesticated lions and dolphin butlers. [ laughter ] or whatever the normal person's versions of those things may be. finally, i'd like to offer every single american $10,000 to not watch the debate between myself and barack obama. [ laughter ] i'm very serious. [ applause ] just mail photographic evidence of you not watching the debates

to "i didn't watch the debates, care of mitt romney, 32 big mansion road." ha-ha ha! ha ha ha. just kidding. it's actually 14 big mansion road. see? i zinged you again. thank you, and god bless america. boop.

[ laughter ] although it did mark the first time all year obama's actually seen something get passed. [ audience ohs ] so, it's going to be very interesting. [ applause ] everyone's looking for some kind of sign as to who will win debate. in fact, one group of researchers are saying that presidential candidates who blink less during a debate are more likely to win the election. or as michele bachmann put it, "any way i can get back in this thing or what?" [ laughter ]

hey! there you go. [ applause ] i just read about this, you guys. a new survey found that over 35% of americans actually plan on voting before election day. not for president of the united states, just for "dancing with the stars."

[ laughter ] of course, it was probably scared of the other birds in the studio, you know, grey goose and wild turkey. [ laughter ]

"just land on the arm. the bird --" "what bird? just put your arm out and the bird will land on it." [ laughter ] "but the bird's going to land on the arm." [ laughter ] this isn't good. ikea is facing criticism for airbrushing women out of its catalog in saudi arabia. yeah, ikea hasn't taken this much heat since they airbrushed english out of their instruction manuals. [ laughter ] "put the flugen in the --" [ laughter ] amtrak just announced that it will be performing drug tests on 50% of its employees. so, if you plan on riding amtrak, don't worry. there's only a 50% chance your conductor is totally stoned. so, that's good.
